- Abstract:
In this course portfolio, Dan Bernstein reports on changes he has made over three semesters in a psychology course on learning. He has succeeded in getting more students to achieve higher levels of understanding by changing the assessment from short abstract essay questions to problems that asked students to apply concepts in new contexts, and providing web-based opportunities for students to identify what makes some answers better than others. The portfolio includes examples of the assessments used, graphs reporting his results, and students final exams.
This work is part of an exhibition on Disciplinary Styles in the Scholarship of Teaching. The project shows how Bernstein makes use of ideas about levels of understanding derived from his own discipline, but not always applied in pedagogical practice. Similarly, he presents his work using the graphs and statistics drawn from his background as an experimental psychologist, but has to rely on the quasi-experimental methods more comfortable for his colleagues in other sectors of psychology.
